8:15 AM 15-min Candle Box on 5-min Chart with TP and SLThe “8:15 AM 15-min Candle Box on 5-min Chart with TP and SL” indicator is a custom-built Pine Script tool for breakout trading strategies, particularly tailored for assets like NASDAQ Futures (NAS100) during the U.S. market pre-open.
🔍 What It Does:
Tracks the 8:15–8:30 AM Central Time (CDT) Candle:
It marks the high and low of the 15-minute candle that starts at 8:15 AM (CDT).
The box visually outlines this price range.
Draws a Breakout Box:
At 8:30 AM, a box is drawn from the 8:15 candle’s high and low.
The box stretches forward 8 hours into the session, helping you visualize price interaction with that range.
Detects Breakouts:
If the price closes above the high, it signals a buy breakout.
If it closes below the low, it signals a sell breakout.

### OVERVIEW
**Anchored Darvas Box** lets you drop a single timestamp on your chart and build a Darvas-style consolidation zone forward from that exact candle. The indicator freezes the first user-defined number of bars to establish the range, verifies that price respects that range for another user-defined number of bars, then waits for the first decisive breakout. The resulting rectangle captures every tick of the accumulation phase and the exact moment of expansion—no manual drawing, complete timestamp precision.
---
### HISTORICAL BACKGROUND
Nicolas Darvas’s 1950s box theory tracked institutional accumulation by hand-drawing rectangles around tight price ranges. A trade was triggered only when price escaped the rectangle.
The anchored version preserves Darvas’s logic but pins the entire sequence to a user-chosen candle: perfect for analysing a market open, an earnings release, FOMC minute, or any other catalytic bar.
---
### ALGORITHM DETAIL
1. **ANCHOR BAR**
*You provide a timestamp via the settings panel.* The script waits until the chart reaches that bar and records its index as **startBar**.
2. **RANGE DEFINITION — BARS 1-7**
• `rangeHigh` = highest high of bars 1-7 plus optional tolerance.
• `rangeLow` = lowest low of bars 1-7 minus optional tolerance.
3. **RANGE VALIDATION — BARS 8-14**
• Price must stay inside ` `.
• Any violation aborts the test; no box is created.
4. **ARMED STATE**
• If bars 8-14 hold the range, two live guide-lines appear:
– **Green** at `rangeHigh`
– **Red** at `rangeLow`
• The script is now “armed,” waiting indefinitely for the first true breakout.
5. **BREAKOUT & BOX CREATION**
• **Up breakout** =`high > rangeHigh` → rectangle drawn in **green**.
• **Down breakout**=`low < rangeLow` → rectangle drawn in **red**.
• Box extends from **startBar** to the breakout bar and never updates again.
• Optional labels print the dollar and percentage height of the box at its left edge.
6. **OPTIONAL COOLDOWN**
• After the box is painted the script can stay silent for a user-defined number of bars, letting you study the fallout without another range immediately arming on top of it.
---
### INPUT PARAMETERS
• **ANCHOR TIME** – Precise yyyy-mm-dd HH:MM:SS that seeds the sequence.
• **BARS TO DEFINE RANGE** – Default 7; affects both definition and validation windows.
• **OPTIONAL TOLERANCE** – Absolute price buffer to ignore micro-wicks.
• **COOLDOWN BARS AFTER BREAKOUT** – Pause length before the indicator is allowed to re-anchor (set to zero to disable).
• **SHOW BOX DISTANCE LABELS** – Toggle to print Δ\$ and Δ% on every completed box.
---
### USER WORKFLOW
1. Add the indicator, open settings, and set **ANCHOR TIME** to the candle you care about (e.g., “2025-04-23 09:30:00” for NYSE open).
2. Watch live as the script:
– Paints the seven-bar range.
– Draws validation lines.
– Locks in the box on breakout.
3. Use the box boundaries as structural stops, targets, or context for further trades.
---
### PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS
• **OPENING RANGE BREAKOUTS** – Anchor at the first second of the session; capture the initial 7-bar range and trade the first clean break.
• **EVENT STUDIES** – Anchor at a news candle to measure immediate post-event volatility.
• **VOLUME PROFILE FUSION** – Combine the anchored box with VPVR to see if the breakout occurs at a high-volume node or a low-liquidity pocket.
• **RISK DISCIPLINE** – Stop-loss can sit just inside the opposite edge of the anchored range, enforcing objective risk.
---
### ADVANCED CUSTOMISATION IDEAS
• **MULTIPLE ANCHORS** – Clone the indicator and anchor several boxes (e.g., London open, New York open).
• **DYNAMIC WINDOW** – Switch the 7-bar fixed length to a volatility-scaled length (ATR percentile).
• **STRATEGY WRAPPER** – Turn the indicator into a `strategy{}` script and back-test anchored boxes on decades of data.
---
### FINAL THOUGHTS
Anchored Darvas Boxes give you Darvas’s timeless range-break methodology anchored to any candle of interest—perfect for dissecting openings, economic releases, or your own bespoke “important” bars with laboratory precision.
TrendCraft ICT SwiftEdge// The TrendCraft ICT SwiftEdge is a trend-following indicator that combines Simple Moving Averages (SMAs) with Inner Circle Trader (ICT) concepts, specifically Break of Structure (BOS) and Market Structure Shift (MSS), to generate precise buy and sell signals. This unique mashup leverages the strengths of trend confirmation through SMAs and market structure analysis via ICT to help traders identify high-probability trend entries. The indicator is designed to be intuitive, customizable, and suitable for traders of all levels seeking to align with market trends on various timeframes.
//
// ### What It Does
// The indicator plots two SMAs based on the high and low prices of candles to define the trend direction. It colors the SMAs and fills the area between them to visually indicate whether the price is in a bullish (above both SMAs), bearish (below both SMAs), or neutral (between SMAs) state. Simultaneously, it identifies BOS and MSS levels on a user-defined higher timeframe to confirm trend continuation or reversal points. Buy and sell signals are generated when the price closes above/below the latest BOS or MSS level (based on user preference) while also being correctly positioned relative to the SMAs, ensuring alignment with the trend.
//
// ### Why Combine SMAs and ICT?
// SMAs provide a reliable way to gauge trend direction by smoothing price data, but they can lag or generate false signals in choppy markets. ICT's BOS and MSS concepts address this by focusing on key market structure breaks, offering context for significant price movements. By requiring price to close beyond a BOS or MSS level and align with the SMA-defined trend, the TrendCraft ICT SwiftEdge filters out noise and enhances signal reliability. This combination creates a robust system that balances trend-following simplicity with structural market insights, making it ideal for trend traders.
//
// ### How to Use
// 1. **SMA Length**: Adjust the `SMA Length` (default: 20) to control the sensitivity of the SMAs. Shorter lengths react faster to price changes, while longer lengths provide smoother trends.
// 2. **Structure Timeframe**: Set the `Structure Timeframe` to a higher timeframe (e.g., "1H" on a 15M chart) to calculate BOS and MSS levels. This ensures structural signals are based on significant market moves.
// 3. **Chart Timeframe**: Select the `Chart Timeframe` to optimize pivot point calculations for your current chart (e.g., "30M" for a 30-minute chart).
// 4. **Signal Type**: Choose between "BOS" (default) for signals based on trend continuation breaks or "MSS" for signals based on potential reversal points (breakers).
// 5. **Display Options**: Enable/disable `Show Continuation (BOS)` and `Show Breaker (MSS)` to toggle the visibility of BOS and MSS lines. Customize their colors for better chart clarity.
//
// ### Signals
// - **Buy Signal**: Appears when the close price crosses above the latest BOS or MSS level (based on Signal Type) and is above both SMAs, indicating a bullish trend entry. Marked with a green "Buy" label.
// - **Sell Signal**: Appears when the close price crosses below the latest BOS or MSS level (based on Signal Type) and is below both SMAs, indicating a bearish trend entry. Marked with a red "Sell" label.
//
// ### Originality
// The TrendCraft ICT SwiftEdge stands out by integrating the trend-following reliability of SMAs with the structural precision of ICT's BOS and MSS. Unlike standalone SMA or ICT indicators, this script requires both trend alignment and structural confirmation, reducing false signals. The user-selectable Signal Type (BOS or MSS) adds versatility, allowing traders to adapt the indicator to trend-following or counter-trend strategies. Its dynamic timeframe adjustments and visual clarity make it a unique tool for traders seeking to capture trend entries with confidence.
//
// ### Notes
// - Ensure the `Structure Timeframe` is higher than your chart timeframe to avoid calculation issues.
// - Signals are generated only when the trend state changes to avoid redundant signals in the same trend direction.
// - Past performance is not indicative of future results. Always combine this indicator with other analysis and risk management techniques.
Liquidity Fracture DetectorThe Liquidity Fracture Detector is an advanced tool designed to identify micro-liquidity traps and structural fakeouts on intraday charts. These occur when the market appears to break out, only to quickly reverse — often triggered by stop hunts, inefficient fills, or manipulated order flow.
The script combines volume spikes, volatility anomalies, and price structure breaks to signal "fractures" — points where the market temporarily breaks its behavior, often followed by strong reversals or trend accelerations.
Detection logic in the script:
Volume spike greater than 2x the average (adjustable)
Volatility spike: candle range is > 1.5x the average
Extreme wicks: wick is larger than the candle body (a classic trap signal)
Structure break: price breaks previous high/low but closes back within the old range
Combine these elements → a “fracture” is marked
Visual representation:
Red background = potential bull trap (fake breakout to the upside)
Green background = potential bear trap (fake breakdown to the downside)
A label appears at each fracture: “Echo” with the number of previous hits
Ideal use cases:
Intraday trading (1m, 5m, 15m)
Crypto, indices, futures, and forex
Detecting reactive zones where the market takes a false direction
Confluence with S/R zones, order blocks, or liquidity pools
Fully customizable:
Volume and range sensitivity
Heatmap intensity
Toggle labels on/off
Note:
This script is intended to support discretionary analysis. It does not provide buy or sell signals and is not an automated strategy. Combine it with your own price action or order flow setup for optimal results.

Relative Directional Index (RDI)🔍 Overview
The Relative Directional Index (RDI) is a hybrid tool that fuses the Average Directional and the Relative Strength Indices (ADX and RSI) into a single, highly visual interface. While the former captures trend strength, the latter reveals momentum shifts and potential exhaustion. Together, they can confirm trend structure, anticipate reversals, and sharpen the timing entries and exits.
📌 Why Combine ADX with RSI?
Most indicators focus on either trend-following (like ADX) or momentum detection (like RSI)—but rarely both. Each comes with trade-offs:
- ADX alone confirms trend strength but ignores momentum.
- RSI alone signals overbought/oversold, but lacks trend context.
The RDI resolves this by integrating both, offering:
- Smarter filters for trend entries
- Early warnings of momentum breakdowns
- More confident signal validation
🧠 Design Note: Fibonacci Harmony
All default values—5, 13, 21—are Fibonacci numbers. This is intentional, as these values reflect the natural rhythm of market cycles, and promote harmonic calibration between price action and indicator logic.
🔥 Key Features
✅ ADX Histogram
- Green bars = trend gaining strength
- Red bars = trend weakening
- Adjustable transparency for visual tuning
✅ ADX Line (Orange)
- Measures trend strength over time
- Rising = accelerating trend
- Falling = trend may be fading
✅ RSI Line (Lemon Yellow)
- Captures momentum surges and slowdowns
- Above 50 = bullish control
- Below 50 = bearish pressure
✅ Trend Strength Squares
- Bright green = strong uptrend
- Bright red = strong downtrend
- Faded colors = range-bound or indecisive
✅ ADX/RSI Crossover Markers
- Yellow square = RSI crosses above ADX → momentum building
- Orange square = ADX crosses above RSI → trend still dominant
✅ Customizable Reference Lines
- Yellow (50) = strong trend threshold
- Red (30) = weak trend zone
- Green (70) = overextended, potential exhaustion
_______________________________________________________
🎯 How to Trade with the RDI
The RDI helps traders identify momentum-supported trends, catch early reversals, and avoid false signals during consolidation.
✅ Trend Confirmation Entries
🔼 Bullish → Enter long on pullbacks or resistance breakouts
- ADX rising above 30
- RSI above 50
- Green trend square visible
🔽 Bearish → Enter short on breakdowns or failed retests
- ADX rising
- RSI below 50
- Red trend square visible
🧯 Exit if RSI crosses back against trend direction or ADX flattens
🚨 Reversal Setups Using Divergence
📈 Bullish Divergence → Long entry after confirmation (e.g. engulfing bar, volume spike)
- Price prints lower low
- RSI prints higher low
- Green triangle
📉 Bearish Divergence → Short entry on breakdown
- Price prints higher high
- RSI prints lower high
- Red triangle
Tip: Stronger if ADX is declining (fading trend strength)
🔂 Breakout Detection via Cross Markers
- Yellow square = RSI > ADX → breakout brewing
- Orange square = ADX > RSI → trend continuation likely
⏸️ Avoid Choppy Markets
- RSI between 45–55
- Faded trend squares
- Flat ADX below 20–30
🧠 Pro Tips
- Combine RDI with VWAPs, moving averages and/or pitchforks
- Watch for alignment between trend and momentum
- Use divergence markers as confirmation, not stand-alone triggers
_______________________________________________________
⚠️ Hidden Divergence (Optional)
The RDI includes optional hidden divergence detection. These signals suggest trend continuation but are off by default. Use with discretion—best in established trends, not sideways markets.
🙈 Hidden Bullish
- Price prints higher low
- RSI prints lower low
🙈 Hidden Bearish
- Price prints lower high
- RSI prints higher high
Granular MA Ribbon🎗️ The Granular MA Ribbon provides a structured view of price action on lower timeframes by incorporating both price-based and volume-weighted moving averages, offering a more nuanced view of market trends and momentum shifts. Furthermore, by using 15-minute intervals for its calculations, it ensures that intraday traders receive a smooth and responsive representation of higher timeframe trends.
⚠️ Note that this indicator is specifically optimized for the 15-minute and 1-hour charts; applying it to longer or shorter periods will distort its calculations and reduce its effectiveness. Adjust visibility settings accordingly.
🧰 Unlike traditional moving averages that may lag or fail to reflect real-time shifts in price dynamics, the Granular MA Ribbon includes a one-day exponential moving average (1D EMA), a one-day volume-weighted moving average (1D VWMA), and a one-week exponential moving average (1W EMA). Together, these elements allow traders to stay aligned with the broader market while making precise intraday trading decisions.
🤷🏻 Why Two Daily Moving Averages?
🔊 Instead of relying on a single moving average, this indicator uses both an EMA and a VWMA to provide a clearer picture of price movement. The EMA reacts quickly to price changes, making it a useful tool for identifying short-term momentum shifts. The VWMA, meanwhile, accounts for volume, ensuring that price movements supported by higher trading activity carry greater weight in the trend calculation.
💪🏻 When the EMA and VWMA diverge significantly, it signals strong momentum. If they begin to converge, it suggests that momentum is weakening or that price may be entering consolidation. The space between these two moving averages is filled with a ribbon, making it easier to see shifts in trend strength. A wide ribbon typically indicates strong momentum, while a narrowing ribbon suggests the trend may be losing steam.
🧮 Calculation Rationale
🔎 The 1D EMA and 1D VWMA are constructed using 15-minute blocks to maintain accuracy on lower timeframes. A full trading day consists of 96 fifteen-minute intervals. Instead of relying on daily candle data, which would reduce the granularity of the moving averages, this method allows the indicator to reflect intra-day trends more accurately. By breaking the day into smaller increments, the moving averages adapt more smoothly to changes in price and volume, making them more reliable for traders working on shorter timeframes.
🔍 The weekly EMA follows the same logic, adjusting based on the selected five-day or seven-day setting. If the market follows a standard five-day trading week, the one-week EMA is calculated using 480 fifteen-minute bars. If the market trades seven days a week, such as in crypto, the weekly EMA is adjusted accordingly to reflect 672 fifteen-minute bars. This setting ensures that traders using the indicator across different asset classes receive accurate trend information.
🫤 Sideways Markets
🔄 When the broader market is in a range-bound state, with no clear trend on the one-day or one-week chart, this indicator helps traders make sense of the short-term price structure. In these conditions, the ribbon will often appear flat, with the 1D EMA and 1D VWMA frequently crossing each other. This suggests that momentum is weak and that price action lacks a strong directional bias.
⚠️ A narrowing ribbon in a sideways market indicates reduced volatility and a potential breakout. If the EMA crosses above the VWMA during consolidation, it may signal a short-term upward move, especially if volume begins to increase. Conversely, if the EMA moves below the VWMA, it could indicate that selling pressure is increasing. However, in choppy conditions, crossovers alone are not enough to confirm a trade. Traders should wait for additional confirmation, such as a breakout from a defined range or a shift in volume.
♭ If the weekly EMA remains flat while the daily ribbon fluctuates, it confirms that the market lacks a strong trend. In such cases, traders may consider fading moves near the top and bottom of a range rather than expecting sustained breakouts.
💹 Trending Markets
🏗️ When the market is in a strong uptrend or downtrend, the ribbon takes on a more structured shape. A widening ribbon that slopes upward signals strong bullish momentum, with price consistently respecting the 1D EMA and VWMA as support. In a downtrend, the ribbon slopes downward, acting as dynamic resistance.
📈 In trending conditions, traders can use the ribbon to time pullback entries. In an uptrend, price often retraces to the VWMA before resuming its upward move. If price holds above both the EMA and VWMA, the trend remains strong. If price begins to close below the VWMA but remains above the EMA, it suggests weakening momentum but not necessarily a reversal. A clean break below both moving averages indicates a shift in trend structure.
📊 The one-week EMA serves as a higher timeframe guide. When price remains above the weekly EMA, it confirms that the broader trend is intact. If price pulls back to the weekly EMA and bounces, it can provide a high-confidence trade entry. Conversely, if price breaks below the weekly EMA and fails to reclaim it, it suggests that the trend may be reversing.
⏳ 5-Day and 7-Day Week Variants
🎚️ The setting for a five-day or seven-day trading week adjusts the calculation of the one-week EMA. This ensures that the indicator remains accurate across different asset classes.
5️⃣ A five-day trading week is appropriate for stocks, futures, and forex markets, where trading pauses on weekends. Using a seven-day week for these markets would create artificial distortions by including non-trading days. 7️⃣ In contrast, the seven-day week setting is ideal for crypto markets, which trade continuously. Without this adjustment, the weekly EMA would fail to reflect weekend price action, leading to misleading trend signals.
🧐 This indicator is expressly designed to complement its higher timeframe counterpart, the Triple Differential Moving Average Braid, optimized for the 1-Day chart.
Dual Volume Divergence LineDual Volume Divergence Line (DVD/Line)
🔹 Overview
The Dual Volume Divergence Line (DVD/Line) is a custom Pine Script™ indicator designed to identify potential trend reversals and continuations by analyzing volume and price divergences. This script is inspired by the original concept of the Dual Volume Divergence Index (DVDI) by DonovanWall and has been modified and enhanced by keremertem. Special thanks to DonovanWall for the original concept. The indicator combines volume-based calculations with price action to generate signals for bullish and bearish divergences, both normal and hidden. Below is a detailed breakdown of its components and functionality.
🔹 Key Features of the DVD/Line Indicator
1. Dual Volume Divergence Calculation:
- The indicator calculates two primary volume-based indices: the Positive Volume Index (PVI) and the Negative Volume Index (NVI).
- PVI measures the impact of volume on price when the price increases, while NVI measures the impact when the price decreases.
- These indices are used to detect divergences between volume and price, which can signal potential reversals or continuations.
2. Customizable Inputs:
- DVD Sampling Period: Adjusts the sensitivity of the indicator by controlling the lookback period for calculating the volume-weighted moving averages (VWMA) of PVI and NVI.
- Band Width: Defines the range for calculating the upper and lower bands, which act as dynamic support and resistance levels.
- Source: Allows users to select the price source (e.g., `hlc3`, `close`, etc.) for calculations.
3. Volume-Weighted Moving Averages (VWMA):
- Instead of using traditional moving averages, the script employs VWMA to smooth the PVI and NVI signals. This ensures that the indicator is more responsive to changes in volume.
4. Upper and Lower Bands:
- The upper and lower bands are calculated using the Root Mean Square (RMS) of the highest and lowest values of the DVD line over a user-defined period. These bands help identify overbought and oversold conditions.
5. Divergence Detection:
- The script identifies four types of divergences:
- Normal Bullish Divergence: Occurs when price makes a lower low, but the DVD line makes a higher low.
- Hidden Bullish Divergence: Occurs when price makes a higher low, but the DVD line makes a lower low.
- Normal Bearish Divergence: Occurs when price makes a higher high, but the DVD line makes a lower high.
- Hidden Bearish Divergence: Occurs when price makes a lower high, but the DVD line makes a higher high.
- These divergences are visually highlighted on the chart using labels.
6. Customizable Divergence Selection:
- Users can choose between two types of divergence calculations:
- DVDI: Based on the raw divergence values.
- DVD Line: Based on the smoothed DVD line.
7. Visual Enhancements:
- The DVD line is plotted with a color-coded scheme: blue when the DVD line is above its signal line (bullish) and pink when it is below (bearish).
- The upper and lower bands are displayed as step lines, making it easier to identify key levels.
🔹 How the Indicator Works
1. Volume-Based Calculations:
- The script starts by calculating the PVI and NVI based on the selected price source and volume data.
- PVI increases when the price rises, while NVI decreases when the price falls. These indices are then smoothed using VWMA to generate signals.
2. DVD Line Calculation:
- The DVD line is derived by combining the divergences of PVI and NVI. It is further smoothed using a Weighted Moving Average (WMA) and a linear regression line for trend analysis.
3. Divergence Detection:
- The script identifies pivot points in the DVD line and compares them with price action to detect divergences.
- Normal divergences indicate potential reversals, while hidden divergences suggest trend continuations.
4. Dynamic Bands:
- The upper and lower bands are calculated using RMS, which provides a more accurate representation of volatility compared to standard deviation or fixed-width bands.
5. Labeling:
- Divergences are labeled directly on the chart with clear text and color coding:
🟢 Bullish Divergence: Green label with "Bull".
🟩 Bearish Divergence: Red label with "Bear".
🔴 Hidden Bullish Divergence: Lime label with "hid.".
🟧 Hidden Bearish Divergence: Orange label with "hid.".
🔹 Unique Aspects of This Script
1. Volume-Weighted Smoothing:
- Unlike traditional divergence indicators that rely on simple moving averages, this script uses VWMA and WMA to ensure that volume plays a significant role in signal generation.
2. Dynamic Bands with RMS:
- The use of RMS for calculating bands provides a more adaptive and accurate representation of market conditions, especially in volatile markets.
3. Flexible Divergence Selection:
- Users can choose between raw divergence values (DVDI) or smoothed values (DVD Line), allowing for greater customization based on trading style.
4. Comprehensive Divergence Detection:
- The script detects both normal and hidden divergences, providing a complete picture of potential trend reversals and continuations.
5. User-Friendly Visuals:
- The color-coded DVD line and cross-style bands make it easy to interpret the indicator at a glance.
🔹 How to Use the Indicator
1. Trend Identification:
- Use the Middle Band and its color to identify the current trend. A green line suggests bullish momentum, while a red line indicates bearish momentum. Additionally, a bullish momentum may be indicated when the DVD line crosses up, and a bearish momentum may be indicated when it crosses down the Middle Band.
2. Divergence Trading:
- Look for divergences between the DVD line and price action. Normal divergences can be used for counter-trend trades, while hidden divergences can confirm trend continuations.
3. Band Breakouts:
- Monitor the upper and lower bands for potential breakout or reversal signals. A break above the upper band may indicate overbought conditions, while a break below the lower band may suggest oversold conditions.
4. Customization:
- Adjust the sampling period and band width to suit different timeframes and trading strategies. Shorter periods are more sensitive, while longer periods provide smoother signals.
🔹 Conclusion
The Dual Volume Divergence Line (DVD/Line) is a powerful and versatile indicator that combines volume analysis with price action to generate actionable trading signals. Its unique use of volume-weighted smoothing, dynamic bands, and comprehensive divergence detection sets it apart from traditional divergence indicators. Whether you're a day trader or a long-term investor, this tool can help you identify high-probability trading opportunities with greater accuracy and confidence.

Rally Base Drop SND Pivots Strategy [LuxAlgo X PineIndicators]This strategy is based on the Rally Base Drop (RBD) SND Pivots indicator developed by LuxAlgo. Full credit for the concept and original indicator goes to LuxAlgo.
The Rally Base Drop SND Pivots Strategy is a non-repainting supply and demand trading system that detects pivot points based on Rally, Base, and Drop (RBD) candles. This strategy automatically identifies key market structure levels, allowing traders to:
Identify pivot-based supply and demand (SND) zones.
Use fixed criteria for trend continuation or reversals.
Filter out market noise by requiring structured price formations.
Enter trades based on breakouts of key SND pivot levels.
How the Rally Base Drop SND Pivots Strategy Works
1. Pivot Point Detection Using RBD Candles
The strategy follows a rigid market structure methodology, where pivots are detected only when:
A Rally (R) consists of multiple consecutive bullish candles.
A Drop (D) consists of multiple consecutive bearish candles.
A Base (B) is identified as a transition between Rallies and Drops, acting as a pivot point.
The pivot level is confirmed when the formation is complete.
Unlike traditional fractal-based pivots, RBD Pivots enforce stricter structural rules, ensuring that each pivot:
Has a well-defined bullish or bearish price movement.
Reduces false signals caused by single-bar fluctuations.
Provides clear supply and demand levels based on structured price movements.
These pivot levels are drawn on the chart using color-coded boxes:
Green zones represent bullish pivot levels (Rally Base formations).
Red zones represent bearish pivot levels (Drop Base formations).
Once a pivot is confirmed, the high or low of the base candle is used as the reference level for future trades.
2. Trade Entry Conditions
The strategy allows traders to select from three trading modes:
Long Only – Only takes long trades when bullish pivot breakouts occur.
Short Only – Only takes short trades when bearish pivot breakouts occur.
Long & Short – Trades in both directions based on pivot breakouts.
Trade entry signals are triggered when price breaks through a confirmed pivot level:
Long Entry:
A bullish pivot level is formed.
Price breaks above the bullish pivot level.
The strategy enters a long position.
Short Entry:
A bearish pivot level is formed.
Price breaks below the bearish pivot level.
The strategy enters a short position.
The strategy includes an optional mode to reverse long and short conditions, allowing traders to experiment with contrarian entries.
3. Exit Conditions Using ATR-Based Risk Management
This strategy uses the Average True Range (ATR) to calculate dynamic stop-loss and take-profit levels:
Stop-Loss (SL): Placed 1 ATR below entry for long trades and 1 ATR above entry for short trades.
Take-Profit (TP): Set using a Risk-Reward Ratio (RR) multiplier (default = 6x ATR).
When a trade is opened:
The entry price is recorded.
ATR is calculated at the time of entry to determine stop-loss and take-profit levels.
Trades exit automatically when either SL or TP is reached.
If reverse conditions mode is enabled, stop-loss and take-profit placements are flipped.
Visualization & Dynamic Support/Resistance Levels
1. Pivot Boxes for Market Structure
Each pivot is marked with a colored box:
Green boxes indicate bullish demand zones.
Red boxes indicate bearish supply zones.
These boxes remain on the chart to act as dynamic support and resistance levels, helping traders identify key price reaction zones.
2. Horizontal Entry, Stop-Loss, and Take-Profit Lines
When a trade is active, the strategy plots:
White line → Entry price.
Red line → Stop-loss level.
Green line → Take-profit level.
Labels display the exact entry, SL, and TP values, updating dynamically as price moves.
Customization Options
This strategy offers multiple adjustable settings to optimize performance for different market conditions:
Trade Mode Selection → Choose between Long Only, Short Only, or Long & Short.
Pivot Length → Defines the number of required Rally & Drop candles for a pivot.
ATR Exit Multiplier → Adjusts stop-loss distance based on ATR.
Risk-Reward Ratio (RR) → Modifies take-profit level relative to risk.
Historical Lookback → Limits how far back pivot zones are displayed.
Color Settings → Customize pivot box colors for bullish and bearish setups.
Considerations & Limitations
Pivot Breakouts Do Not Guarantee Reversals. Some pivot breaks may lead to continuation moves instead of trend reversals.
Not Optimized for Low Volatility Conditions. This strategy works best in trending markets with strong momentum.
ATR-Based Stop-Loss & Take-Profit May Require Optimization. Different assets may require different ATR multipliers and RR settings.
Market Noise May Still Influence Pivots. While this method filters some noise, fake breakouts can still occur.
Conclusion
The Rally Base Drop SND Pivots Strategy is a non-repainting supply and demand system that combines:
Pivot-based market structure analysis (using Rally, Base, and Drop candles).
Breakout-based trade entries at confirmed SND levels.
ATR-based dynamic risk management for stop-loss and take-profit calculation.
This strategy helps traders:
Identify high-probability supply and demand levels.
Trade based on structured market pivots.
Use a systematic approach to price action analysis.
Automatically manage risk with ATR-based exits.
The strict pivot detection rules and built-in breakout validation make this strategy ideal for traders looking to:
Trade based on market structure.
Use defined support & resistance levels.
Reduce noise compared to traditional fractals.
Implement a structured supply & demand trading model.
This strategy is fully customizable, allowing traders to adjust parameters to fit their market and trading style.

🚀 A powerful indicator for tracking key trading sessions and the highs and lows of each session!
📌 Description
The Trading Sessions Highs/Lows indicator visually marks the most critical trading sessions—Asia, London, and New York—using small colored dots at the bottom of the candle. It also tracks and plots the highs and lows of each session, along with the Daily Open and Weekly Open levels.
This tool is designed to help traders identify session-based liquidity zones, price reactions, and potential trade setups with minimal chart clutter.
Key Features:
✅ Session markers (Asia, London, NY AM, NY Lunch, NY PM) plotted as small dots
✅ Plots session highs and lows for market structure insights
✅ Daily Open line for intraday reference
✅ Weekly Open line for higher timeframe bias
✅ Alerts for session high/low breaks to capture momentum shifts
✅ User-defined UTC offset for global traders
✅ Customizable session colors for personal preference
📖 How to Use the Indicator
1️⃣ Understanding the Sessions
Asia Session (Yellow Dot) → Marks liquidity buildup & pre-London moves
London Session (Blue Dot) → Strong volatility, breakout opportunities
New York AM Session (Green Dot) → Major trends & institutional participation
New York Lunch (Red Dot) → Low volume, ranging market
New York PM Session (Dark Green Dot) → End-of-day movements & reversals
2️⃣ Session Highs & Lows for Market Structure
Session Highs can act as resistance or breakout points.
Session Lows can act as support or stop-hunt zones.
Break of a session high/low with volume may indicate continuation or reversal.
3️⃣ Using the Daily & Weekly Open
The Daily Open (Black Line) helps gauge the intraday trend.
Above Daily Open → Bearish Bias
Below Daily Open → Bullish Bias
The Weekly Open (Red Line) sets the higher timeframe directional bias.
4️⃣ Alerts for Breakouts
The indicator will trigger alerts when price breaks session highs or lows.
Useful for setting stop-losses, breakout trades, and risk management.
💡 Why This Indicator is Important for Beginners
1️⃣ Avoids Overtrading:
Many beginners trade in low-volume periods (NY Lunch, Asia session) and get stuck in choppy price action.
This indicator highlights when volatility is high so traders focus on better opportunities.
2️⃣ Session-Based Liquidity Traps:
Market makers often run stops at session highs/lows before reversing.
Watching session breaks prevents traders from falling into liquidity grabs.
3️⃣ Reduces Emotional Trading:
If price is above the Daily Open, a beginner shouldn’t look for shorts.
If price is below a key session low, it may signal a fake breakout.
4️⃣ Aligns with Institutional Trading:
Smart money traders use session highs/lows to set stop hunts & reversals.
Beginners can use this indicator to spot these zones before entering trades.
🛡️ How to Mitigate Risk with This Indicator
✅ Wait for Confirmations – Don’t trade blindly at session highs/lows. Look for wicks, rejections, or break/retests.
✅ Use Stop-Loss Above/Below Session Levels – If you’re going long, set SL below a session low. If short, set SL above a session high.
✅ Watch Volume & News Events – Breakouts without strong volume or news may be fake moves.
✅ Combine with Other Strategies – Use price action, trendlines, or EMAs with this indicator for higher probability trades.
✅ Use the Weekly Open for Trend Bias – If price stays below the Weekly Open, avoid bullish setups unless key support holds.
🎯 Who is This Indicator For?
📌 Beginners who need clear session-based trading levels.
📌 Day traders & scalpers looking to refine their intraday setups.
📌 Smart money traders using liquidity concepts.
📌 Swing traders tracking higher timeframe momentum shifts.

Volatility-Volume Index (VVI)Volatility-Volume Index (VVI) – Indicator Description
The Volatility-Volume Index (VVI) is a custom trading indicator designed to identify market consolidation and anticipate breakouts by combining volatility (ATR) and trading volume into a single metric.
How It Works
Measures Volatility : Uses a 14-period Average True Range (ATR) to gauge price movement intensity.
Tracks Volume : Monitors trading activity to identify accumulation or distribution phases.
Normalization : ATR and volume are normalized using their respective 20-period Simple Moving Averages (SMA) for a balanced comparison.
Interpretation
VVI < 1: Low volatility and volume → Consolidation phase (range-bound market).
VVI > 1: Increased volatility and/or volume → Potential breakout or trend continuation.
How to Use VVI
Detect Consolidation:
Look for extended periods where VVI remains below 1.
Confirm with sideways price movement in a narrow range.
Anticipate Breakouts:
A spike above 1 signals a possible trend shift or breakout.
Why Use VVI?
Unlike traditional volatility indicators (ATR, Bollinger Bands) or volume-based tools (VWAP), VVI combines both elements to provide a clearer picture of consolidation zones and breakout potential.
AE - ATR Exhaustion ChannelAE - ATR Exhaustion Channel
📈 Overview
Identify Exhaustion Zones & Trend Breakouts with ATR Precision!
The AE - ATR Exhaustion Channel is a powerful volatility-based trading tool that combines an averaged SMA with ATR bands to dynamically highlight potential trend exhaustion zones. It provides real-time breakout detection by marking when price moves beyond key volatility bands, helping traders spot overextensions and reversals with ease.
🔑 Key Features
✔️ ATR-SMA Hybrid Channel: Uses an averaged SMA as the core trend filter while incorporating adaptive ATR-based bands for precise volatility tracking.
✔️ Dynamic Exhaustion Markers: Marks red crosses when price exceeds the upper band and green crosses when price drops below the lower band.
✔️ Customizable ATR Sensitivity: Adjust the ATR multiplier and length settings to fine-tune band sensitivity based on market conditions.
✔️ Clear Channel Visualization: A gray SMA midpoint and a blue-filled ATR band zone make it easy to track market structure.
📚 How It Works
1️⃣ Averaged SMA Calculation: The script calculates an averaged SMA over a user-defined range (min/max period). This smooths out short-term fluctuations while preserving trend direction.
2️⃣ ATR Band Construction: The ATR value (adjusted by a multiplier) is added to/subtracted from the SMA to form dynamic upper and lower volatility bands.
3️⃣ Exhaustion Detection:
If high > upper ATR band, a red cross is plotted (potential overextension).
If low < lower ATR band, a green cross is plotted (potential reversal zone).
4️⃣ Filled ATR Channel: The area between the upper and lower bands is shaded blue, providing a visual trading range.
🎨 Customization & Settings
⚙️ ATR Length – Adjusts the ATR calculation period (default: 14).
⚙️ ATR Multiplier – Scales the ATR bands for tighter or wider volatility tracking (default: 0.8, adjustable in 0.1 steps).
⚙️ SMA Range (Min/Max Length) – Defines the period range for calculating the averaged SMA (default: 5-20).
⚙️ Rolling Lookback Length – Controls how far back the high/low comparison is calculated (default: 50 bars).
🚀 Practical Usage
📌 Spotting Exhaustion Zones – Look for red/green markers appearing outside the ATR bands, signaling potential trend exhaustion and possible reversal opportunities.
📌 Breakout Confirmation – Price consistently breaching the upper band with momentum could indicate continuation, while repeated touches without strong closes may hint at reversal zones.
📌 Trend Reversal Signals – Watch for green markers below the lower band in uptrends (buy signals) and red markers above the upper band in downtrends (sell signals).
🔔 Alerts & Notifications
📢 Set Alerts for Exhaustion Signals!
Traders can configure alerts to trigger when price breaches the ATR bands, allowing for instant notifications when volatility-based exhaustion is detected.
📊 Example Scenarios
✔ Trend Exhaustion in Overextended Moves – A series of red crosses near resistance may indicate a short opportunity.
✔ Trend Exhaustion in Overextended Moves – A series of red crosses near resistance may indicate an opportunity to open a short trade.
✔ Volatility Compression Breakouts – If price consolidates within the ATR bands and suddenly breaks out, it could signify a momentum shift.
✔ Reversal Catching in Trending Markets – Spot potential trend reversals by looking for green markers below the ATR bands in bullish markets.

Johnny's Volatility-Driven Trend Identifier w/ Reversal SignalsJohnny's Volatility-Driven Trend Identifier w/ Reversal Signals is designed to identify high-probability trend shifts and reversals by incorporating volatility, momentum, and impulse-based filtering. It is specifically built for traders who want to capture strong trend movements while minimizing false signals caused by low volatility noise.
By leveraging Rate of Change (ROC), Relative Strength Index (RSI), and Average True Range (ATR)-based volatility detection, the indicator dynamically adapts to market conditions. It highlights breakout trends, reversals, and early signs of momentum shifts using strategically placed labels and color-coded trend visualization.
Inspiration taken from Top G indicator .
What This Indicator Does
The Volatility-Driven Trend Identifier works by:
Measuring Market Extremes & Momentum:
Uses ROC normalization with standard deviation to identify impulse moves in price action.
Implements RSI filtering to determine overbought/oversold conditions that validate trend strength.
Utilizes ATR-based volatility tracking to ensure signals only appear when meaningful market movements are occurring.
Identifying Key Trend Events:
Power Peak (🔥): Marks a confirmed strong downtrend, ideal for shorting opportunities.
Surge (🚀): Indicates a confirmed strong uptrend, signaling a potential long entry.
Soft Surge (↗): Highlights a mild bullish reentry or early uptrend formation.
Soft Peak (↘): Shows a mild bearish reentry or early downtrend formation.
Providing Adaptive Filtering for Reliable Signals:
Filters out weak trends with a volatility check, ensuring signals appear only in strong market conditions.
Implements multi-level confirmation by combining trend strength metrics, preventing false breakouts.
Uses gradient-based visualization to color-code market sentiment for quick interpretation.
What This Indicator Signals
Breakouts & Impulse Moves: 🚀🔥
The Surge (🚀) and Power Peak (🔥) labels indicate confirmed momentum breakouts, where the trend has been validated by a combination of ROC impulse, RSI confirmation, and ATR volatility filtering.
These signals suggest that the market is entering a strong trend, and traders can align their entries accordingly.
Early Trend Formation & Reentries: ↗ ↘
The Soft Surge (↗) and Soft Peak (↘) labels indicate areas where a trend might be forming, but is not yet fully confirmed.
These signals help traders anticipate potential entries before the trend gains full strength.
Volatility-Adaptive Trend Filtering: 📊
Since the indicator only activates in volatile conditions, it avoids the pitfalls of low-range choppy markets where false signals frequently occur.
ATR-driven adaptive windowing allows the indicator to dynamically adjust its sensitivity based on real-time volatility conditions.
How to Use This Indicator
1. Identifying High-Probability Entries
Bullish Entries (Long Trades)
Look for 🚀 Surge signals in an uptrend.
Confirm with RSI (should be above 50 for momentum).
Ensure volatility is increasing to validate the breakout.
Use ↗ Soft Surge signals for early entries before the trend fully confirms.
Bearish Entries (Short Trades)
Look for 🔥 Power Peak signals in a downtrend.
RSI should be below 50, indicating downward momentum.
Volatility should be rising, ensuring market momentum is strong.
Use ↘ Soft Peak signals for early entries before a full bearish confirmation.
2. Avoiding False Signals
Ignore signals when the market is ranging (low ATR).
Check RSI and ROC alignment to ensure trend confirmation.
Use additional confluences (e.g., price action, support/resistance levels, moving averages) for enhanced accuracy.
3. Trend Confirmation & Filtering
The stronger the trend, the higher the likelihood that Surge (🚀) and Power Peak (🔥) signals will continue in their direction.
Soft Surge (↗) and Soft Peak (↘) act as early warning signals before major breakouts occur.
What Makes This a Machine Learning-Inspired Moving Average?
While this indicator is not a direct implementation of machine learning (as Pine Script lacks AI/ML capabilities), it mimics machine learning principles by adapting dynamically to market conditions using the following techniques:
Adaptive Trend Selection:
It does not rely on fixed moving averages but instead adapts dynamically based on volatility expansion and momentum detection.
ATR-based filtering adjusts the indicator’s sensitivity to real-time conditions.
Multi-Factor Confirmation (Feature Engineering Equivalent in ML):
Combines ROC, RSI, and ATR in a structured way, similar to how ML models use multiple inputs to filter and classify data.
Implements conditional trend recognition, ensuring that only valid signals pass through the filter.
Noise Reduction with Data Smoothing:
The algorithm avoids false signals by incorporating trend intensity thresholds, much like how ML models remove outliers to refine predictions.
Adaptive filtering ensures that low-volatility environments do not produce misleading signals.
Why Use This Indicator?
✔ Reduces False Signals: Multi-factor validation ensures only high-confidence signals are triggered.
✔ Works in All Market Conditions: Volatility-adaptive nature allows the indicator to perform well in both trending and ranging markets.
✔ Great for Swing & Intraday Trading: It helps spot momentum shifts early and allows traders to catch major market moves before they fully develop.
✔ Visually Intuitive: Color-coded trends and clear signal markers make it easy to interpret.

SCE Price Action SuiteThis is an indicator designed to use past market data to mark key price action levels as well as provide a different kind of insight. There are 8 different features in the script that users can turn on and off. This description will go in depth on all 8 with chart examples.
#1 Absorption Zones
I defined Absorption Zones as follows.
//----------------------------------------------
//---------------Absorption---------------------
//----------------------------------------------
box absorptionBox = na
absorptionBar = ta.highest(bodySize, absorptionLkb)
bsab = ta.barssince(bool(ta.change(absorptionBar)))
if bsab == 0 and upBar and showAbsorption
absorptionBox := box.new(left = bar_index - 1, top = close, right = bar_index + az_strcuture, bottom = open, border_color = color.rgb(0, 80, 75), border_width = boxLineSize, bgcolor = color.rgb(0, 80, 75))
absorptionBox
else if bsab == 0 and downBar and showAbsorption
absorptionBox := box.new(left = bar_index - 1, top = close, right = bar_index + az_strcuture, bottom = open, border_color = color.rgb(105, 15, 15), border_width = boxLineSize, bgcolor = color.rgb(105, 15, 15))
absorptionBox
What this means is that absorption bars are defined as the bars with the largest bodies over a selected lookback period. Those large bodies represent areas where price may react. I was inspired by the concept of a Fair Value Gap for this concept. In that body price may enter to be a point of support or resistance, market participants get “absorbed” in the area so price can continue in whichever direction.
#2 Candle Wick Theory/Strategy
I defined Candle Wick Theory/Strategy as follows.
//----------------------------------------------
//---------------Candle Wick--------------------
//----------------------------------------------
highWick = upBar ? high - close : downBar ? high - open : na
lowWick = upBar ? open - low : downBar ? close - low : na
upWick = upBar ? close + highWick : downBar ? open + highWick : na
downWick = upBar ? open - lowWick : downBar ? close - lowWick : na
downDelivery = upBar and downBar and high > upWick and highWick > lowWick and totalSize > totalSize and barstate.isconfirmed and session.ismarket
upDelivery = downBar and upBar and low < downWick and highWick < lowWick and totalSize > totalSize and barstate.isconfirmed and session.ismarket
line lG = na
line lE = na
line lR = na
bodyMidpoint = math.abs(body) / 2
upWickMidpoint = math.abs(upWickSize) / 2
downWickkMidpoint = math.abs(downWickSize) / 2
if upDelivery and showCdTheory
cpE = chart.point.new(time, bar_index - 1, downWickkMidpoint)
cpE2 = chart.point.new(time, bar_index + bl, downWickkMidpoint)
cpG = chart.point.new(time, bar_index + bl, downWickkMidpoint * (1 + tp))

lR := line.new(cpR1, cpR, xloc.bar_index, extend.none, color.red, line.style_solid, 1)
lR
First I get the size of the wicks for the top and bottoms of the candles. This depends on if the bar is red or green. If the bar is green the wick is the high minus the close, if red the high minus the open, and so on. Next, the script defines the upper and lower bounds of the wicks for further comparison. If the candle is green, it's the open price minus the bottom wick. If the candle is red, it's the close price minus the bottom wick, and so on. Next we have the condition for when this strategy is present.
Down delivery:
Occurs when the previous candle is green, the current candle is red, and:
The high of the current candle is above the upper wick of the previous candle.
The size of the current candle's top wick is greater than its bottom wick.
The total size of the previous candle is greater than the total size of the current candle.
The current bar is confirmed (barstate.isconfirmed).
The session is during market hours (session.ismarket).
Up delivery:
Occurs when the previous candle is red, the current candle is green, and:
The low of the current candle is below the lower wick of the previous candle.
The size of the current candle's bottom wick is greater than its top wick.
The total size of the previous candle is greater than the total size of the current candle.
The current bar is confirmed.
The session is during market hours
Then risk is plotted from the percentage that users can input from an ideal entry spot.
#3 Candle Size Theory
I defined Candle Size Theory as follows.
//----------------------------------------------
//---------------Candle displacement------------
//----------------------------------------------
line lECD = na
notableDown = bodySize > bodySize * candle_size_sensitivity and downBar and session.ismarket and barstate.isconfirmed

cpE2 = chart.point.new(time, bar_index + bl_strcuture, close)

lECD := line.new(cpE, cpE2, xloc.bar_index, extend.none, color.rgb(105, 15, 15), line.style_solid, 3)
lECD
This plots candles that are “notable” or out of the ordinary. Candles that are larger than the last by a value users get to specify. These candles' highs or lows, if they are green or red, act as levels for support or resistance.
#4 Candle Structure Theory
I defined Candle Structure Theory as follows.
//----------------------------------------------
//---------------Structure----------------------
//----------------------------------------------
breakDownStructure = low < low and low < low and high > high and upBar and downBar and upBar and downBar and session.ismarket and barstate.isconfirmed
breakUpStructure = low > low and low > low and high < high and downBar and upBar and downBar and upBar and session.ismarket and barstate.isconfirmed
if breakUpStructure and showStructureTheory
cpE = chart.point.new(time, bar_index - 1, close)
cpE2 = chart.point.new(time, bar_index + bl_strcuture, close)
lE := line.new(cpE, cpE2, xloc.bar_index, extend.none, color.teal, line.style_solid, 3)
lE
else if breakDownStructure and showStructureTheory
cpE = chart.point.new(time, bar_index - 1, open)
cpE2 = chart.point.new(time, bar_index + bl_strcuture, open)
lE := line.new(cpE, cpE2, xloc.bar_index, extend.none, color.red, line.style_solid, 3)
lE
It is a series of candles to create a notable event. 2 lower lows in a row, a lower high, then green bar, red bar, green bar is a structure for a breakdown. 2 higher lows in a row, a higher high, red bar, green bar, red bar for a break up.
#5 Candle Swing Structure Theory
I defined Candle Swing Structure Theory as follows.
//----------------------------------------------
//---------------Swing Structure----------------
//----------------------------------------------
line htb = na
line ltb = na
if totalSize * swing_struct_sense < totalSize and upBar and downBar and high > high and showSwingSturcture and session.ismarket and barstate.isconfirmed
cpS = chart.point.new(time, bar_index - 1, high)
cpE = chart.point.new(time, bar_index + bl_strcuture, high)
htb := line.new(cpS, cpE, xloc.bar_index, color = color.red, style = line.style_dashed)
htb
else if totalSize * swing_struct_sense < totalSize and downBar and upBar and low > low and showSwingSturcture and session.ismarket and barstate.isconfirmed
cpS = chart.point.new(time, bar_index - 1, low)
cpE = chart.point.new(time, bar_index + bl_strcuture, low)
ltb := line.new(cpS, cpE, xloc.bar_index, color = color.teal, style = line.style_dashed)
ltb
A bearish swing structure is defined as the last candle’s total size, times a scalar that the user can input, is less than the current candles. Like a size imbalance. The last bar must be green and this one red. The last high should also be less than this high. For a bullish swing structure the same size imbalance must be present, but we need a red bar then a green bar, and the last low higher than the current low.
#6 Fractal Boxes
I define the Fractal Boxes as follows
//----------------------------------------------
//---------------Fractal Boxes------------------
//----------------------------------------------
box b = na
int indexx = na
if bar_index % (n * 2) == 0 and session.ismarket and showBoxes
b := box.new(left = bar_index, top = topBox, right = bar_index + n, bottom = bottomBox, border_color = color.rgb(105, 15, 15), border_width = boxLineSize, bgcolor = na)
indexx := bar_index + 1
indexx
The idea of this strategy is that the market is fractal. It is considered impossible to be able to tell apart two different time frames from just the chart. So inside the chart there are many many breakouts and breakdowns happening as price bounces around. The boxes are there to give you the view from your timeframe if the market is in a range from a time frame that would be higher than it. Like if we are inside what a larger time frame candle’s range. If we break out or down from this, we might be able to trade it. Users can specify a lookback period and the box is that period’s, as an interval, high and low. I say as an interval because it is plotted every n * 2 bars. So we get a box, price moves, then a new box.
#7 Potential Move Width
I define the Potential Move Width as follows
//----------------------------------------------
//---------------Move width---------------------
//----------------------------------------------
velocity = V(n)
line lC = na
line l = na
line l2 = na
line l3 = na
line l4 = na
line l5 = na
line l6 = na
line l7 = na
line l8 = na
line lGFractal = na
line lRFractal = na
cp2 = chart.point.new(time, bar_index + n, close + velocity)
cp3 = chart.point.new(time, bar_index + n, close - velocity)
cp4 = chart.point.new(time, bar_index + n, close + velocity * 5)
cp5 = chart.point.new(time, bar_index + n, close - velocity * 5)
cp6 = chart.point.new(time, bar_index + n, close + velocity * 10)
cp7 = chart.point.new(time, bar_index + n, close - velocity * 10)
cp8 = chart.point.new(time, bar_index + n, close + velocity * 15)
cp9 = chart.point.new(time, bar_index + n, close - velocity * 15)
cpG = chart.point.new(time, bar_index + n, close + R)
cpR = chart.point.new(time, bar_index + n, close - R)
if ((bar_index + n) * 2 - bar_index) % n == 0 and session.ismarket and barstate.isconfirmed and showPredictionWidtn
cp = chart.point.new(time, bar_index, close)
cpG1 = chart.point.new(time, bar_index, close + R)
cpR1 = chart.point.new(time, bar_index, close - R)
l := line.new(cp, cp2, xloc.bar_index, extend.none, color.aqua, line.style_solid, 1)
l2 := line.new(cp, cp3, xloc.bar_index, extend.none, color.aqua, line.style_solid, 1)
l3 := line.new(cp, cp4, xloc.bar_index, extend.none, color.red, line.style_solid, 1)
l4 := line.new(cp, cp5, xloc.bar_index, extend.none, color.red, line.style_solid, 1)
l5 := line.new(cp, cp6, xloc.bar_index, extend.none, color.teal, line.style_solid, 1)
l6 := line.new(cp, cp7, xloc.bar_index, extend.none, color.teal, line.style_solid, 1)
l7 := line.new(cp, cp8, xloc.bar_index, extend.none, color.blue, line.style_solid, 1)
l8 := line.new(cp, cp9, xloc.bar_index, extend.none, color.blue, line.style_solid, 1)
l8
By using the past n bar’s velocity, or directional speed, every n * 2 bars. I can use it to scale the close value and get an estimate for how wide the next moves might be.
#8 Linear regression
//----------------------------------------------
//---------------Linear Regression--------------
//----------------------------------------------
lr = showLR ? ta.linreg(close, n, 0) : na
plot(lr, 'Linear Regression', color.blue)
I used TradingView’s built in linear regression to not reinvent the wheel. This is present to see past market strength of weakness from a different perspective.
User input
Users can control a lot about this script. For the strategy based plots you can enter what you want the risk to be in percentages. So the default 0.01 is 1%. You can also control how far forward the line goes.
Look back at where it is needed as well as line width for the Fractal Boxes are controllable. Also users can check on and off what they would like to see on the charts.
No indicator is 100% reliable, do not follow this one blindly. I encourage traders to make their own decisions and not trade solely based on technical indicators. I encourage constructive criticism in the comments below. Thank you.

How it Works:
Pivot Detection: The script identifies the highest high (pivotHigh) and the lowest low (pivotLow) within a specific range of bars (defined by Pivot Left and Pivot Right).
Trendline Plotting: Once pivots are detected, the script draws resistance (red) and support (green) trendlines connecting the most recent pivots. These trendlines act as dynamic support and resistance levels.
Breakout Signals: The script generates signals:
BUY (Long): Triggered when the price breaks above the most recent resistance trendline.
SELL (Short): Triggered when the price breaks below the most recent support trendline.
Parameters:
Pivot Left: Number of bars to the left of the pivot point to consider.
Pivot Right: Number of bars to the right of the pivot point to consider.
Line Width: Customizable line width for drawing trendlines.
Ideal Use:
Timeframes: This indicator works well on timeframes ranging from 1-minute to daily charts. For best results, use it on 1-hour, 4-hour, or daily charts.
Strategy: Ideal for breakout traders or trend-following strategies. Use it to identify potential entry points when price breaks key levels of support or resistance.
Example Use Case:
Swing Traders: Traders looking for potential breakouts can use this script to identify key levels in the market and wait for the price to break through resistance for a long trade or support for a short trade.
Day Traders: For those looking to enter and exit trades in a single day, this indicator can help pinpoint areas of support and resistance, and provide actionable signals when price breaks those levels.
Disclaimer:
This script is not a guarantee of success and should be used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools. Always perform additional research and backtesting before live trading.

The pivot points and trendlines may adjust dynamically as the price evolves. Adjust the pivot settings to suit the volatility and timeframe of the market you're trading.
This indicator works best when combined with other indicators such as volume, RSI, or MACD for confirmation.
How to Use:
Add the indicator to your chart.
Adjust the Pivot Left and Pivot Right parameters to fine-tune the pivot point detection.
Monitor for trendline breakouts. When the price breaks above the resistance line, a BUY signal will appear. When the price breaks below the support line, a SELL signal will appear.
Use the signals to enter trades at the right moment.
Final Notes:
If you're submitting to TradingView for publishing, keep your description clear and informative, but also concise. Traders need to quickly understand how your indicator works, what parameters they can adjust, and how it might fit into their trading strategy.
Single Candle Model-DTFXThe script identifies the candles with engulfing body and marks the 50% of the candle for easy entry based on model of #DTFX single candle entry
Interpreting the Signals:
Look for candles labeled as "BE". These represent significant price action where the range is larger than the previous candle's range.
Pay attention to the 50% line of the "BE" candle:
A green line indicates a bullish "BE" candle.
A red line indicates a bearish "BE" candle.
Watch for Buy ("B") and Sell ("S") labels:
"B": Indicates a potential bullish breakout.
"S": Indicates a potential bearish breakdown.
Alerts:
Configure alerts in TradingView to notify you whenever a "B" or "S" signal is detected. This allows you to act on the signals without constantly monitoring the chart.
Use in Trading Strategies:
Combine this indicator with other tools like support/resistance levels, moving averages, or trend analysis to validate the signals.
Use the midpoint (50% line) of the "BE" candle as a potential reference point for stop-loss or target levels.
Customizations:
Adjust the appearance of labels and lines by modifying their style, color, or placement in the script.
Add filters (e.g., timeframes or volume conditions) to refine the detection of "BE" candles.
This indicator helps traders identify pivotal price movements and act on potential breakouts or breakdowns with clear visual markers and alerts.
UVR Crypto TrendINDICATOR OVERVIEW: UVR CRYPTO TREND
The UVR Crypto Trend indicator is a custom-built tool designed specifically for cryptocurrency markets, utilizing advanced volatility, momentum, and trend-following techniques. It aims to identify trend reversals and provide buy and sell signals by analyzing multiple factors, such as price volatility(UVR), RSI (Relative Strength Index), CMF (Chaikin Money Flow), and EMA (Exponential Moving Average). The indicator is optimized for CRYPTO MARKETS only.
KEY FEATURES AND HOW IT WORKS
Volatility Analysis with UVR
The UVR (Ultimate Volatility Rate) is a proprietary calculation that measures market volatility by comparing significant price extremes and smoothing the data over time.
Purpose: UVR aims to reduce noise in low-volatility environments and highlight significant movements during higher-volatility periods. While it strives to improve filtering in low-volatility conditions, it does not guarantee perfect performance, making it a balanced and adaptable tool for dynamic markets like cryptocurrency.
HOW UVR (ULTIMATE VOLATILITY RATE) IS CALCULATED
UVR is calculated using a method that ensures precise measurement of market volatility by comparing price extremes across consecutive candles:
Volatility Components:
Two values are calculated to represent potential price fluctuations:
The absolute difference between the current candle's high and the previous candle's low:
Volatility Component 1=∣High−Low ∣
The absolute difference between the previous candle's high and the current candle's low:
Volatility Component 2=∣High −Low∣
Volatility Ratio:
The larger of the two components is selected as the Volatility Ratio, ensuring UVR captures the most significant movement:
Volatility Ratio=max(Volatility Component 1,Volatility Component 2)
Smoothing with SMMA:
To stabilize the volatility calculation, the Volatility Ratio is smoothed using a Smoothed Moving Average (SMMA) over a user-defined period (e.g., 14 candles):
UVR=(UVR(Previous)×(Period−1)+Volatility Ratio)/Period
This calculation ensures UVR adapts dynamically to market conditions, focusing on significant price movements while filtering out noise.
RSI FOR MOMENTUM DETECTION
RSI (Relative Strength Index) identifies overbought and oversold conditions.
Trend Confirmation at the 50 Level
RSI values crossing above 50 signal the potential start of an upward trend.
RSI values crossing below 50 indicate the potential start of a downward trend.
Key Reversals at Extreme Levels
RSI detects trend reversals at overbought (>70) and oversold (<30) levels.
For example:
Overbought Trend Reversal: RSI >70 followed by bearish price action signals a potential downtrend.
Oversold Trend Reversal: RSI <30 with bullish confirmation signals a potential uptrend.
Rare Extreme RSI Readings
Extreme levels, such as RSI <12 (oversold) or RSI >88 (overbought), are used to identify rare yet powerful reversals.
---HOW IT DIFFERS FROM OTHER INDICATORS---
Using UVR High and Low Values
The Ultimate Volatility Rate (UVR) focuses on analyzing the high and low price ranges of the market to measure volatility.
Unlike traditional trend indicators that rely primarily on momentum or moving average crossovers, UVR leverages price extremes to better identify trend reversals.
This approach ensures fewer false signals during low-volatility phases and more accurate trend detection during high-volatility conditions.
UVR as the Core Component
The indicator is fundamentally built around UVR as the primary filter, while supporting tools like RSI (momentum detection), CMF (volume confirmation), and EMA (trend validation) complement its functionality.
By integrating these additional components, the indicator provides a multidimensional analysis rather than relying solely on a single approach.
Dynamic Adaptation to Volatility
UVR dynamically adjusts to market conditions, striving to improve filtering in low-volatility phases. While not flawless, this approach minimizes false signals and adapts more effectively to varying levels of market activity.
Trend Clouds for Visual Guidance
UVR-based dynamic clouds visually mark high and low price areas, highlighting potential consolidation or retracement zones.
These clouds serve as guides for setting stop-loss or take-profit levels, offering clear risk management strategies.
BUY AND SELL SIGNAL LOGIC
BUY CONDITIONS
Momentum-Based Buy-Entry
RSI >50, CMF >0, and the close price is above EMA50.
The price difference between open and close exceeds a threshold based on UVR.
Oversold Reversal
RSI <30 and CMF >0 with a strong bullish candle (close > open and UVR-based sensitivity filter).
Breakout Confirmation
The price breaks above a previously identified resistance, with conditions for RSI and CMF supporting the breakout.
Reversal from Oversold RSI Extreme
RSI <12 on the previous candle with a strong rebound on the current candle with UVR confirmation filter.
SELL CONDITIONS
Momentum-Based Sell-Entry
RSI <50, CMF <0, and the close price is below EMA50.
The price difference between open and close exceeds the UVR threshold.
Overbought Reversal
RSI >70 with bearish price action (open > close and UVR-based sensitivity filter).
Breakdown Confirmation
The price breaks below a previously identified support, with RSI and CMF supporting the breakdown.
Reversal from Overbought RSI Extreme
RSI >88 on the previous candle with a bearish confirmation on the current candle with UVR confirmation filter.
BUY AND SELL SIGNALS VISUALIZATION
The UVR Crypto Trend Indicator visually represents buy and sell conditions using dynamic plots, making it easier for traders to interpret and act on the signals. Below is an explanation of the visual representation:
Buy Signals and Visualization
Signal Trigger:
A buy signal is generated when one of the defined Buy Conditions is met (e.g., RSI >50, CMF >0, price above EMA50).
Visual Representation:
A blue upward arrow appears at the candle where the buy condition is triggered.
A blue cloud forms above the price candles, representing the strength of the bullish trend. The cloud dynamically adapts to market volatility, using the UVR calculation to mark support zones or consolidation levels.
Purpose of the Blue Cloud:
It acts as a visual guide for price movements and stay horizontal when the trend is not moving up
Sell Signals and Visualization
Signal Trigger:
A sell signal is generated when one of the defined Sell Conditions is met (e.g., RSI <50, CMF <0, price below EMA50).
Visual Representation:
A red downward arrow appears at the candle where the sell condition is triggered.
A red cloud forms below the price candles, representing the strength of the bearish trend. Like the blue cloud, it uses the UVR calculation to dynamically mark resistance zones or potential retracement levels.
Purpose of the Red Cloud:
It acts as a visual guide for price movements and stay horizontal when the trend is not moving down.
CONCLUSION
The UVR Crypto Trend indicator provides a powerful tool for trend reversal detection by combining volatility analysis, momentum confirmation, and trend-following techniques. Its unique use of the Ultimate Volatility Rate (UVR) as a core element, supported by proven indicators like RSI, CMF, and EMA, ensures reliable and actionable signals tailored for the crypto market's dynamic nature. By leveraging UVR’s high and low price range analysis, it achieves a level of precision that traditional indicators lack, making it a high-performing system for cryptocurrency traders.
Weis Wave Max█ Overview
Weis Wave Max is the result of my weis wave study.
David Weis said,
"Trading with the Weis Wave involves changes in behavior associated with springs, upthrusts, tests of breakouts/breakdowns, and effort vs reward. The most common setup is the low-volume pullback after a bullish/bearish change in behavior."
THE STOCK MARKET UPDATE (February 24, 2013)
I inspired from his sentences and made this script.
Its Main feature is to identify the largest wave in Weis wave and advantageous trading opportunities.
█ Features
This indicator includes several features related to the Weis Wave Method.
They help you analyze which is more bullish or bearish.
Highlight Max Wave Value (single direction)
Highlight Abnormal Max Wave Value (both directions)
Support and Resistance zone
Signals and Setups
█ Usage
Weis wave indicator displays cumulative volume for each wave.
Wave volume is effective when analyzing volume from VSA (Volume Spread Analysis) perspective.
The basic idea of Weis wave is large wave volume hint trend direction. This helps identify proper entry point.
This indicator highlights max wave volume and displays the signal and then proper Risk Reward Ratio entry frame.
I defined Change in Behavior as max wave volume (single direction).
Pullback is next wave that does not exceed the starting point of CiB wave (LH sell entry, HL buy entry).
Change in Behavior Signal ○ appears when pullback is determined.
Change in Behavior Setup (Entry frame) appears when condition of Min/Max Pullback is met and follow through wave breaks end point of CiB wave.
This indicator has many other features and they can also help a user identify potential levels of trade entry and which is more bullish or bearish.

ICT Panther (By Obicrypto) V1 ICT Panther Indicator: Full and Detailed Description
The ICT Panther Indicator, created by Obicrypto, is an advanced technical analysis tool designed specifically for traders looking to identify key price action events based on institutional trading techniques, particularly in the context of the Inner Circle Trader (ICT) methodology. This indicator helps traders spot market structure breaks, order blocks, and potential trade opportunities driven by institutional behaviors in the market. Here's a detailed breakdown of its features and how it works:
What Does the ICT Panther Indicator Do?
1. Market Structure Breaks (MSB) Identification:
The ICT Panther identifies critical points where the market changes direction, commonly referred to as a break of structure (BoS). When the price breaks above or below certain key levels (based on highs and lows or opens and closes), it signals a potential shift in market sentiment. These break-of-structure points are essential for traders to determine whether the market is likely to continue its trend or reverse.
2. Order Blocks Visualization:
The indicator plots demand (bullish) and supply (bearish) boxes, which represent areas where institutional traders might place significant buy or sell orders. These zones, known as order blocks, are areas where the price tends to pause or reverse, giving traders key insights into potential entry and exit points. The indicator shows these areas graphically as colored boxes on the chart, which can be used to plan trades based on market structure and price action.
3. Pivot Point Detection:
The ICT Panther identifies important pivot points by tracking higher highs and lower lows. These pivot points are critical in determining the strength of a trend and can help traders confirm the direction of the market. The indicator uses a unique algorithm to detect two levels of pivot points:
- First-Order Pivots: Major pivot points where the price makes notable highs and lows.
- Second-Order Pivots: Smaller pivot points, useful for detecting microtrends within the larger market structure.
4. Bullish and Bearish Break of Structure Lines:
When a significant market structure break (BoS) occurs, the indicator will automatically draw red lines (for bearish break of structure) and green lines (for bullish break of structure) at key price levels. These lines help traders quickly see where institutional moves have occurred in the past and where potential future price moves could originate from.
5. Tested and Filled Boxes:
The ICT Panther also has a built-in mechanism to dim previously tested order blocks. When the price tests an order block (returns to a previous demand or supply zone), the box's color dims to indicate that the area has already been tested, reducing its significance. If the price fully fills an order block, the box stops plotting, providing a clear and clutter-free chart.
Key Features
1. Market Structure Break (MSB) Trigger:
- The indicator allows users to select between highs/lows or opens/closes as the trigger for market structure breaks. This flexibility lets traders adjust the indicator to suit their personal trading style or the behavior of specific assets.
2. Order Block Detection and Visualization:
- The tool automatically plots bullish and bearish demand and supply boxes, representing institutional order blocks on the chart. These boxes provide visual cues for areas of potential price action, where institutional traders might be active.
3. Second-Order Pivot Highlighting:
- The ICT Panther offers an option to plot second-order pivots, highlighting smaller pivot points within the larger market structure. These pivots can be helpful for short-term traders who need to react to smaller price movements while still keeping the larger trend in mind.
4. Box Test and Fill Delays:
- Users can configure delays for box tests and box fills, meaning the indicator will only mark a box as tested or filled after a certain number of bars. This prevents false signals and helps confirm that a zone is truly significant in the market.
5. Customization and Visual Clarity:
- The indicator is highly customizable, allowing users to turn on or off various features like:
- Displaying second-order pivots.
- Highlighting candles that broke structure.
- Plotting market structure broke lines.
- Showing or hiding tested and filled demand boxes.
- Setting custom delays for box testing and filling to suit different market conditions.
6. Tested and Filled Order Block Visualization:
- The indicator visually adjusts the tested and filled order blocks, dimming tested zones and removing filled zones to avoid clutter on the chart. This ensures that traders can focus on active trading opportunities without distractions from historical data.
How Does It Work?
1. Detecting Market Structure Breaks (BoS):
- The indicator continuously tracks the market for key price action signals. When the price breaks through previous highs or lows (or opens and closes, depending on your selection), the indicator marks this as a break of structure. This is a critical signal used by institutional traders and retail traders alike to determine potential future price movements.
2. Order Block Identification:
- Whenever a bullish break of structure occurs, the indicator plots a green demand box to show the area where institutional buyers might have placed significant orders. Similarly, for a bearish break of structure, it plots a red supply box representing areas where institutional sellers are active.
3. Pivot Analysis and Tracking:
- As the market moves, the indicator continuously updates first-order and second-order pivot points based on highs and lows. These points help traders identify whether the market is trending or consolidating. Traders can use these pivot points in combination with the order blocks to make informed trading decisions.
4. Box Testing and Filling:
- When the price retests an existing order block, the box dims to show it has been tested. If the price fully fills the box, it is no longer shown, which helps traders focus on the most relevant, untested order blocks.

Bollinger Band Squeeze with Dotted MidlinesBollinger Band Squeeze with Dotted Midlines
Overview:
The Bollinger Band Squeeze with Dotted Midlines indicator is a powerful tool designed to identify periods of low volatility in the market, known as "squeeze" conditions, which often precede significant price movements. By combining Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels, this indicator highlights when the market is consolidating and prepares traders for potential breakouts.
Key Features:
• Squeeze Detection: The indicator fills the area between the Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels with a semi-transparent red color when both the upper and lower Bollinger Bands are within the Keltner Channels. This visual cue signifies a squeeze condition.
• Dynamic Color Filling: When the Bollinger Bands move outside the Keltner Channels, the fill color changes to a semi-transparent white, indicating the end of the squeeze and the potential start of increased volatility.
• Enhanced Visual Clarity:
o Upper and Lower Bands: The upper and lower lines of both the Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels are plotted with increased thickness (3pt) for better visibility.
o Midlines with Dotted Effect: The middle lines (50% lines) for both the Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels are plotted as dotted lines using circles with a thinner line width (1pt), providing a clear yet unobtrusive reference point.
Indicator Components:
1. Bollinger Bands (Orange Lines):
o Upper Bollinger Band: Calculated as the moving average plus a multiple of the standard deviation.
o Lower Bollinger Band: Calculated as the moving average minus a multiple of the standard deviation.
o Middle Bollinger Band: The simple moving average (SMA) of the closing price.
2. Keltner Channels (White Lines):
o Upper Keltner Channel: Calculated as the exponential moving average (EMA) plus a multiple of the average true range (ATR).
o Lower Keltner Channel: Calculated as the EMA minus a multiple of the ATR.
o Middle Keltner Channel: The EMA of the closing price.
3. Squeeze Condition Fill:
o Red Fill (40% Opacity): Indicates a squeeze condition where the Bollinger Bands are entirely within the Keltner Channels.
o White Fill (40% Opacity): Indicates normal market conditions where the Bollinger Bands have moved outside the Keltner Channels.
How to Use:
1. Identifying Squeeze Conditions:
o Look for Red Filled Areas: When you see the area between the Bollinger Bands and Keltner Channels filled in semi-transparent red, it signals a squeeze condition. This means the market is experiencing low volatility and may be preparing for a significant move.
2. Preparing for Potential Breakouts:
o Monitor for Fill Color Changes: A transition from red to white fill suggests that the squeeze is ending, and volatility is increasing. Traders often interpret this as a potential opportunity for a breakout in either direction.
3. Utilizing Midlines:
o Reference Midlines for Trend Direction: The dotted midlines provide insight into the overall trend. Crossing of the price above or below these lines can offer additional confirmation for trading decisions.
Customization Options:
• Bollinger Bands Settings:
o Length: Default is 20 periods. Adjust to change the sensitivity of the bands.
o Multiplier: Default is 2.0. Modify to increase or decrease the band width based on standard deviation.
• Keltner Channels Settings:
o Length: Default is 20 periods. Alter to adjust the responsiveness of the channels.
o Multiplier: Default is 1.5. Change to widen or narrow the channels based on average true range.
Advantages:
• Visual Clarity: Enhanced line thickness and semi-transparent fills make it easy to spot key market conditions at a glance.
• Early Warning System: By identifying squeeze conditions, traders can anticipate potential breakouts and plan their strategies accordingly.
• Flexible Application: Suitable for various timeframes and trading styles, including day trading, swing trading, and position trading.
Limitations:
• False Signals: Like all technical indicators, it may produce false signals, especially in choppy or range-bound markets.
• Should Be Used with Other Indicators: For better accuracy, it's recommended to use this indicator in conjunction with other technical analysis tools and not as a standalone signal generator.
Conclusion:
The Bollinger Band Squeeze with Dotted Midlines indicator is a valuable addition to any trader's toolkit. By effectively highlighting periods of consolidation and potential breakout points, it aids in making informed trading decisions. The visual enhancements improve usability, allowing traders to quickly interpret market conditions and respond appropriately.
